Many people in our community continue to feel the impact of the terrorist attack at Bondi on Sunday. The NSW Police Force is urging everyone in the community that now is a time for healing, unity and supporting one another. While the NSW Police Force recognises people may want to protest due to recent events both here and overseas, we are asking the community to choose other ways to come together peacefully. Police are also aware of a number of planned unauthorised gatherings around the state this weekend which have been promoted on social media. These have not gone through the formal process under the Summary Offences Act (1988). We strongly encourage those planning or attending these events to reconsider. There will be a significant policing response to any large-scale public gatherings, and this is not a time for large gatherings that may heighten tension or create further risk to the safety of the community. Anyone considering violence, retribution or vigilante behaviour, should know that police will respond swiftly and decisively. The NSW Police Force will continue to take strong action against anyone who engages in criminal activity that is motivated by hate. We are committed to responding to all hate crimes. And we encourage anyone who is the victim of a hate crime or witnesses a hate crime to report the matter to police. As we move toward 2026, it is vital that the community and police stand together to ensure NSW remains a safer and inclusive place for everyone.
